Account Progress Account Progress Account Progress Account Progress

13th March 2024

Account-wide progress is the focus of this update. We have a new account token system to unlock costume parts, certain badges, and possibly more for the whole account instead of only one character. Since a lot of our players use at least two accounts, we made it possible to log into the same account on multiple characters so they can all benefit from unlocked content.

Enemies

  • Longbow Spec Ops now use the Electronics tag, rather than a hardcoded list of mobs affected by bonus damage from their EMP. This means MM Robots and others will now be appropriately affected.
  • 5th Column robots (Mek Man, Wolfpack, Hoverbot) of varying ranks are now all correctly marked as Electronic for bonus damage from EMP attacks, such as Trick Arrow’s EMP Arrow.

Backend

  • Replace the Cryptic string printing implementation with an industry-tested version
    • Inserting numbers in text should be less error-prone.
  • Speedup of part of file processing, which should speedup update deployment. Minimal speedup on normal client loading due to pigg files.
  • Remove VIP/loyalty/license requirement to use Auction House anywhere
  • Removed premium requirements for content.
    • Going Rogue characters
    • Alignment shifts
    • Epic Archetypes
    • Some hard-coded costume part grants since they no longer need to be bought

Co-op team lockouts

  • Fix Villains/Rogues being unable to enter missions in Boomtown that are owned by a Hero teammate
  • Remove requirement that all teammates be on the map when attempting to invite a co-op teammate
  • Hopefully fixes alignment drops when entering Ouro
  • Fix Mission Teleporter not working for Rogues/Villains into Ouroboros

Multibox with one login

  • Removed logic that kicked players offline when attempting to login to the same account
    • “Your account is currently logged in.” message will still show, and characters online will receive a message letting you know another character has logged in.
    • NOTE: Caveats are that most things using globals (IE. emails and tells) will go only to the most recently logged in character.
  • Make server aware of multiple online characters for one account

Account-wide unlockable content

Accounts can now store tokens for unlockable content and other arbitrary data. Costume parts such as the Vanguard set now unlock once for all characters on the whole account. Unlocked costume parts should also be available when creating new characters and do not require logging in to claim.

Powers

  • Removed unnecessary Loyalty & VIP checks on some Inspirations causing some log spam
  • Fixed Mystic Fortune being unobtainable

Fire Blast

  • Fix bug with Flares on PhysX hardware attempting to spawn some FX that doesn’t exist

Radiation Emission

  • Fixed Dark version of Irradiated Ground appearing to have a larger effect radius than the actual effect

Story Arcs

  • Added reward merits to the following contact’s arcs: Provost Marchand, Shauna Stockwell, Eagle Eye, The Major, and Sgt. Schorr
  • Completion of the final Croatoa arc mission will now grant Katie Hannon access to everyone that participated instead of just the mission owner
  • Completion of Lars Hansen’s arc at the “Speak to Ernesto Hess” stage unlocks Ernesto Hess as a contact for group members

Task Forces/Strike Forces

  • Fixed text from Task Force/Strike Force contacts to correctly state that they need only 3 players
  • Fix “the Victor” badge exploit from Katie Hannon’s TF, so that previous badges are properly revoked each time you kill Mary MacComber.

Client

  • Implemented new Performance Profiler
  • Address enhancement UI memory leak related to Catalyzing
  • Removed some dead code related to the old DoubleFusion ad system
  • Adjust part of shadow visibility testing to cut down on unnecessary work for entities
  • Disable a visibility test for entities that is likely unnecessary
  • Implement an FX debris lifetime of 30 seconds
    • This means leaves, chunks of metal, etc. will fade after 30s to reduce particle count.
  • Fix crash from an invalid power received when printing combat messages
    • This caused the infamous “Kinetics crash” any maybe other crashes
    • It doesn’t solve the root of the problem, but it prevents crashes
  • Adjustments to math functions in occlusion system
  • Change temporary allocation in occlusion system from heap to stack-based
  • Change clipping and culling threshold from 2x radius to 1.1x

Map Editor

  • Adjustments to control scheme to make it more intuitive
    • Zoom is now done by the scroll wheel, with Space Bar acting as a speed modifier
    • Plans to remap WASD to camera movement, rather than relying on the pan, look, zoom, and focus of the current system that can make it hard to work with for novices

Costumes

  • Disabled untextured Imperial Dynasty hair options

Trivia

The code has been migrated from MSVC to CMake with Clang/GCC and can be linked with MinGW. This enables easy integration with more libraries and goes a long way towards native Linux support on the backend.

  • Fix crash from an invalid power received when printing combat messages
    • This caused the infamous “Kinetics crash” any maybe other crashes
    • It doesn’t solve the root of the problem, but it prevents crashes

    • Zoom is now done by the scroll wheel, with Space Bar acting as a speed modifier
    • Plans to remap WASD to camera movement, rather than relying on the pan, look, zoom, and focus of the current system that can make it hard to work with for novices

Costumes

  • Disabled untextured Imperial Dynasty hair options

Trivia

The code has been migrated from MSVC to CMake with Clang/GCC and can be linked with MinGW. This enables easy integration with more libraries and goes a long way towards native Linux support on the backend.

Rapid Brawl

Rapid Brawl

We removed the cooldown from Brawl, so you can give enemies the ol’ one-two as fast as the activation time permits. New characters who lack other attacks will have something to do with their fists while they wait for their powers to cool down.

We’ve also enabled by default the procs that the Fighting pool used to unlock on Brawl.

The Horny Costume Pack

Not that kind of horny. We’ve added 16 all new custom modeled and textured horn costume parts for Detail 1 and Detail 2 on all genders.

  • 6 antlers
  • 3 ibex horns
  • 2 oni horns
  • 2 dragon horns
  • 3 tusks

The Polish

  • Enabled all costume parts that are unobtainable in-game without Paragon Reward tokens or Super Packs
  • Removed all non-repeatable options from the Paragon loyalty tree
  • Removed all costume parts from Super Packs
  • Removed enhancement unslotters from Super Packs
  • Moved some prestige powers to the Merit Vendor
    • Rocket Board
    • Magic Carpet
    • Void Skiff
    • Sands of Mu
    • Nemesis Staff
    • Black Wand
    • Ghost Slaying Axe
    • All NPC disguise powers
    • All vanity pets
  • Made some powers inherent
    • Inner Inspiration
    • Return to Battle
    • Mission Teleporter
    • Pocket D VIP Pass
    • Self-destruct
  • All inherent teleports and vendor travel powers require level 6
  • Deleted all other prestige powers not previously mentioned
  • Granted all new characters 6 respecs and 10 free tailor tokens automatically without claiming them from emails
  • Set default inf cap to VIP inf cap
  • Removed all VIP or veteran requirements to earn Vanguard or Incarnate rewards
  • Removed VIP or veteran requirements for all powersets and archetypes

The point of these changes is to improve the onboarding experience for new players by removing the requirement to “purchase” all the premium content. It also clears the power tray of clutter on new characters or after respecs.

Boring Stuff

  • Removed the taunt aura from Knights minions

Pain Domination numbers were tuned and designed around MMs first so the corruptor self buff numbers ended up somewhat crazy and this is being dialed back, MMs are still not quite where i’d like them to be so they’re getting a self damage buff increase.

Corruptor

    • Notably several power additions have been deleted

    • This applies to crab spider pets as well

Arachnos Solder, Arachnos Widow

Powers

  • Made granted powers not interrupt

  • Restraint
    • Fixed Restraint damage reduction durations to properly stay on

Widow - Tarantula

  • Fix Venom Bolt and Venom Burst using incorrect Attack Types, leading to the defense roll being against Energy damage. This was also the source of a map crash when our aggressive error detection was enabled.

Inspirations

  • Removed 5% increase loyalty bonus in non-PvP zones
  • Swapped Purple’s (Defense) values with Orange’s (Resistance) values
    • New values: 10%, 15%, 20%, 30%
  • Change Orange’s (Resistance) values to 2x it’s original value then reduced by 15%
    • New values: 17%, 25.5%, 34%, 51%
  • Added End Drain Resistance to Orange with the same values as the other Resistances

Patrons

  • Fixed Scrapper/Stalker Mace Summon to be 480 second recharge instead of 48
  • Fixed VEAT summons (except Mace, which was already correct) to be 480 seconds instead of 600

Client

  • Fix B and R colors being swapped on certain DXT textures during decoding, such as billboards in Mercy Island
  • Fix buffs not showing on status bar
  • Removed automatic AFK logoff
  • Rewrite Zowie (glowie) code to address an OG dev TODO
  • Fixed a crash caused by chat bubbles
  • Rewrite shadow visibility test to an improved one that causes less indoor shadowing issues while maintaining roughly the same draw call reduction as before
  • Fixed flickering mobs in the Baby New Year’s mission and possibly other maps and may address glowies being hidden.
  • Cleanup of various code in the effort to adjust the codebase for C-over-C++ for more important future work. This is an on-going effort (~27,000 errors to fix originally). In theory, some of the changes will speedup some code. In other cases, it has removed duplicate, unnecessary code.
    • Addressed possible bug with Power Tray code that could cause an out-of-bounds read
    • Changed sorting algorithm usage across the board to one we were previously using for specific cases

Backend

  • Enable crash dumps in Release builds
    • Currently disabled on client
  • Fix Supergroup badge lookup
    • Fixes search UI crash in Apartments
  • Fix a crash that can occur on extremely large apartment designs
    • Note: This may still occur for some scenarios. If you experience this, send me your SG name or a character on your account.
  • Fix crash caused by contacts, such as Breakout, as well as issue with contact requiring relog to speak with you
  • Fix an OG bug where having more than 2 IssueOnEnter contacts in a zone would fail to add the additional ones
  • Fix cause of duplicate IssueOnEnter type contacts
  • Add check that will remove any duplicate IssueOnEnter contacts with no missions done for them to prevent loss of storyarc progress
    • Note: Duplicates will not be removed until you enter the zone where they are issued.
  • Fix intermittent collision issue seen with MM pets and other entities, such as Pocket D jump pads
  • Fix crash that can occur in non-mission maps due to pointer truncation that was missed in 64-bit upgrade

Ouroboros

  • Fixed mission visibility in Ouroboros for sub-50 players
  • Changed Max’s missions to properly show up in the level 50 pool instead of 1-15

Kicknetics Kicknetics Kicknetics Kicknetics

7th October 2022

Backend

  • Massive rewrites to move to cross-platform support
  • Various code improvements for speed and crash fixes

Server

  • Fixed age old bug causing you to get back to back newspaper missions with the same task
  • Fixed long-standing issue with custom pet sequencers that was spamming our error log

    • Due to the original bug, custom pets only played Male animations. You should now see appropriate animations according to costume gender.

Client

General

  • Optimized several parts of renderpath using a Cryptic optimization that had a Paragon TODO on it after fixing the bug preventing the optimization from being used
  • Changed a server-only SSE3 optimization to be available for the client as well in 32-bit, since it’s not 2004
  • Moved PhysX to its own thread

3rd January 2022

Power Updates:

  • Mastermind:
    • Necromancy - Lich’s AOE Hold:
      • Reduce End Cost from 8.528 -> 7.528
      • Increase Recharge Time 8s -> 16s
      • Reduce Hold time from 12s -> 6s
      • Remove Damage component
      • Left the -To-Hit alone
    • Heat Mastery: Fixed prereq requirements
    • Hold Ground: Changed it to a 0.75 ActivatePeriod with a 0.5 second duration on the attributes. This should fix a source of server strain and address the -NaN% bug on the Endurance Consumption display.
  • Kinetic Melee - All Versions:
    • Power Siphon: The base power now grants 37.5% damage for 10 seconds down from 62.75% for 60. The vanilla version did not grant any base damage.
    • The stacking temporary power now grants 25% damage per stack up to 5 stacks for 20 seconds down from 31.25% per stack for 60 seconds.
      • The Temp power lasts 10s, Siphon Mode lasted 60s, for clarity
      • Vanilla was 20 seconds Siphon Mode and 31.25% per stack.
    • To-Hit increase has been reduced from 20% for 10 seconds down to 7.5% for 20 seconds. Vanilla was 7.5% for 20 seconds.
    • Recharge has been lowered from 180 to the vanilla 120 seconds.
  • Brute - Super Strength: Reverted to vanilla to hopefully address objects not being damageable with certain powers, as well as fix damage values that weren’t accurate (as in lower scale than vanilla). Rage retains our changes currently
  • Defender - Holy Light: Admonish recharge and end cost increased to match other t2 blasts
  • Scrapper - Super Reflexes: Fixed Quickness and Practiced Brawler PStrings on ShortHelpText

  • Miscellaneous:
    • Sonic Repulsion no longer plays the On Hit SFX
    • Blind (all versions) No longer uses a pseudopet
    • Speed of Sound now has proper Dark and MinFX

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug from the OG devs that caused a group of Freakshow that are supposed to spawn with a destructible barrel to not appear correctly.
  • Fixed Explosive Arrow to properly do Knockup. It was referencing a non-existent table for scaling and has been set to “Ones” so that it is always scale 2.0 now.
  • Identify Weakness no longer ignores resistance on the Regen debuff and no longer accepts Strength on it either.
  • Fix Cathedral of Pain to work through LFG
  • Address Lucky Bullet and Blood Drink PStrings
  • Address (part of) an error in power attribute stacking
  • Presents (and other objects) will now properly reward salvage, etc.. to level 50 players
  • Fixed a bug from the OG devs causing script-controlled entities to not properly deactivate in certain scenarios (This addresses the Obelisk spawns continuing when Phase 2 of CoP started)
  • Fixed a few issues spamming our logs. Part of those are the above, part aren’t player facing. This will help us address future issues.
  • Adjusted certain escorts from being set to Minion_Pet to being set to Boss_Signature_Pets stats. This should hopefully fix cases like Black Scorpion’s story arc where Dr. Aeon could die before reaching him.
